Virtualbox via a proxy server?

Post by GenieNitro »

Hi there,
I'm trying to use Virtualbox on our school network and it's working quite well.
Every time I start it, though, I get the 'registration' screen. I can't send my info as we connect to the internet via a proxy server.
Any idea how I can register VB bypassing the proxy or at least point VB to the proxy in the first place?

cheers

Hello again - have been trying again to set up Virtualbox on our school machine.
Still can't register because of the proxy server issue.
Is there any other way to register VB or at least bypass the registration screen?

cheers

The registration screen should go away after about 3 to 5 times of starting VirtualBox. If not then let us know.
